Jonah Songtext
von Eric Andersen

The bars in the city are the wastelands of love
If your heart never hunted, never gave it much thought
Tonight you′re down on your luck, your self-esteem is so low
As you pick yourself up, you're cursing under your breath
Someone please show me the door

Sometimes I wish I could do all I please
And be like a Jonah, just to follow my dreams
Leave my loves all behind, I′m nothing special
I just do my part, sometimes I run in the night
When I'm scared of the dark


Jonah, you're gonna be a changed man now
You know that dreamers like you can always find your way out
So many tried and did not have enough
The alleys are littered with the souls who gave up
Jonah, my friend, don′t ever give up

Now you come back, you got something to share
Where have you gone? Jonah, I′m scared
You said that dreams can get lonely, 'cause dreams they don′t care
The times you're looking your best are the times when you look
Like you just swallowed a whale

Jonah, you′re gonna be a changed man now
You know that dreamers like you can always find your way out
So many tried and did not have enough
The alleys are littered with those who gave up
Jonah, my friend, don't ever give up

Oh no, don′t ever give up
Oh no, ooh, don't you ever give up
